The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) scores providers 0–100 across four performance categories: Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities, weighted under 42 CFR §414.1380. Reporting is voluntary for many small practices, so absence of a MIPS score is not a quality signal.

Board certification through an ABMS or AOA member board signals voluntary post-licensure examination plus continuous Maintenance of Certification cycles. Verify any individual provider's status through certificationmatters.org (ABMS) or osteopathic.org (AOA).

Maria Elena Van Gaver, ARNP, FNP-C appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Family Nurse Practitioner provider holding ARNP, FNP-C credentials at 1100 9TH AVE, Seattle, WA, 98101, with a listed phone of (206) 583-2299. NPI 1447813589 was issued on 04/15/2019.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 931 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 83 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $67K in drug spend, split 10% brand-name and 90% generic by claim count. These figures capture only Medicare Part D — commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Family Nurse Practitioner is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 209,817 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 1,222 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist — always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.

  • Check the active license and any disciplinary history with the Washington medical board — federal registration is not a license check. Credential verification guide
  • Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Family Nurse Practitioner peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers
